You're spot on there Wesmip1. Katich's strike rate is just too low. If the Australian team as a whole had a strike rate of only 68.71 like Katich, we'd only score around 206 runs in a 50 overs match. Hardly a competitive total. I will say that maybe Katich has proven himself worthy of a spot in the test side, but surely not so in limited overs. I guess in racing terms, Katich would make a better stayer than a sprinter.
